	\paragraph{Syntax}\label{syntax}

\begin{verbatim}
[h,range] = bar(x,...)
[h,range] = bar(range,x,...)
[h,range] = bar(a,range,x,...)
\end{verbatim}

\paragraph{Input arguments}\label{input-arguments}

\begin{itemize}
\item
  \texttt{a} {[} numeric {]} - Handle to axes in which the graph will be
  plotted; if not specified, the current axes will used.
\item
  \texttt{range} {[} numeric {]} - Date range; if not specified the
  entire range of the input tseries object will be plotted.
\item
  \texttt{x} {[} tseries {]} - Input tseries object whose columns will
  be ploted as a bar graph.
\end{itemize}

\paragraph{Output arguments}\label{output-arguments}

\begin{itemize}
\item
  \texttt{h} {[} numeric {]} - Handles to the bars plotted.
\item
  \texttt{range} {[} numeric {]} - Actually plotted date range.
\end{itemize}

\paragraph{Options}\label{options}

\begin{itemize}
\item
  \texttt{'dateformat='} {[} char \textbar{}
  \emph{irisget(`plotdateformat')} {]} - Date format for the tick marks
  on the x-axis.
\item
  \texttt{'datetick='} {[} numeric \textbar{} \emph{\texttt{Inf}} {]} -
  Vector of dates locating tick marks on the x-axis; Inf means they will
  be created automatically.
\item
  \texttt{'tight='} {[} \texttt{true} \textbar{} \emph{\texttt{false}}
  {]} - Make the y-axis tight.
